Senator Rand Paul spoke moments ago at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC 2013).
Many in the crowd still standing as Rand speaks

I was expecting Rand Paul to talk for at least eleven and a half more hours. #CPAC2013
— Stephen Miller (@redsteeze) March 14, 2013
Zing! He may not have spoken for thirteen hours this time, but he sure made a splash regardless.
Here comes @SenRandPaul #standwithrand … to Metallica's "Enter Sandman"

Did @SenRandPaul just get played out with Enter Sandman by Metallica? Rand just gained a level in my book. #standwithrand

Indeed. Whether or not one always agrees with Senator Rand, a backbone and the fierce defense of liberty is always appreciated.
Update:
My message today for #POTUS is that no one person gets to decide the law, no one person gets to decide your guilt or innocence #CPAC2013

If we destroy our enemy, but lose what defines our freedom in the process, have we really won? #CPAC2013 #tcot http://t.co/CvivLAmivO

#POTUS says he can't find anything to cut except for White House tours. I say, not a penny more to countries that burn our flag. #CPAC2013
— Dr. Rand Paul (@RandPaul) March 14, 2013
The Constitution must be our guide. For conservatives to win nationally, we must stand for something. We must stand on principle. #CPAC2013
— Dr. Rand Paul (@RandPaul) March 14, 2013
We must be the party that shouts at the tops of their lungs, 'We are the party of jobs & opportunity. GOP is the ticket to the middle class'
— Dr. Rand Paul (@RandPaul) March 14, 2013
I will stand for our prosperity and our freedom. I will stand for you. And I ask everyone who values liberty to stand with me. #CPAC2013
